Gut buster #4 - chew on this

"Chew your food, taste your food, chew slowly, ENJOY!  You'll take in 12% fewer calories than if you scarf down your food." ~MH

For your body to fully and properly digest the food you are eating and to absorb all the nutrition, let your teeth do their JOB!  Your food should be the consistency of applesauce before it is allowed to pass on through to your stomach.  Otherwise, you are asking your stomach and bowels to process food that is too large and may lead to GI discomfort (bloating, gas, etc).  So do your body a favor and chew chew chew!!
